The  Moon's  diameter  is  2,160  miles,  and  her  volume  _L.  of  that 
of  the  Earth.  She  revolves  in  her  orbit  once  in  29^  days,  at  a 
distance  of  240,000  miles  from  the  Earth. 

The  Asteroids  number  72,  of  which  10  were  discovered  in  1861. 
Leverrier  estimates  that  their  aggregate  mass  does  not  exceed  one- 
third  of  that  of  the  Earth, 

Apparent  Time,  is  time  reckoned  by  the  revolutions  of  the  Sun 
from  the  meridian  to  the  meridian  again.  These  intervals  being 
unequal,  of  course  the  apparent  solar  days  are  unequal  to  each 
other.  ■    ■  • 

Mean  Time,  is  time  reckoned  by  the  average  length  of  all  the 
solar  days  throughout  the  year.     This  is  the  period  which  consti- 
tutes the  civil  day  of  24  hours.    .

TIDES   OF    THE   PACIFIC   COAST. 


11 


i 


TIDES  OF  THE  PACIFIC  COAST. 

On  the  Pacific  coast,  there  is,  as  a  general  rule,  one  large  and 
one  small  tide  during  each  day;  the  height  of  two  successive 
high-waters  occurring  one  a.  m.,  the  other  p.  m.  of  the  same 
twenty-four  hours,  and  the  intervals  from  the  next  preceding 
transit  of  the  moon  are  very  different.  The  inequalities  depend 
upon  the  moon's  declination ;  they  disappear  near  the  time  of  the 
moon's  declination,  being  nothing,  and  are  greatest  about  the  time 
of  its  being  greatest.  The  inequalities  for  low  water  are  not  the 
same  as  for  high,  though  they  disappear  and  have  the  •  greatest 
value  at  nearly  the  same  times. 

In  Piiget  Sound,  the  inequalities  for  the  interval  of  high  water 
and  for  the  height  of  low  water  follow  this  rule,  but  those  for  the 
interval  of  low  water  and  height  of  high  water  disappear  about 
one  day  before  the  moon's  declination  is  greatest,  and  are  greatest 
about  four  or  five  days  before  the  greatest  declination. 

When  the  moon's  dechnation  is  north,  the  highest  of  the  two 
tides  of  the  twenty-four  hours  occurs  at  San  Francisco  about 
eleven  and  one-half  hours  after  the  moon's  southing  (transit),  and 
when  the  declination  is  south,  the  lowest  of  the  two  high  tides 
occurs  about  that  interval.  The  lowest  of  the  two  low  waters  of 
the  day  is  the  one  which  follows  next  the  highest  high  water. 

To  obtain  the  times  of  high  or  low  water  for  Monterey,  South 
Farallone,  Mare  Island,  Benicia,  Ravenswood,  and  Bodega,  Ijnd  the 
time  for  San  Francisco,  then  subtract  1  h.  44  m.  for  Monterei/, 
1  h.  29  m.  for  the  South  Farallone,  and  49  m.  for  Bodega  ;  and  add 
84  m.  for  Mare  Island,  1  h.  4  m.  for  Benicia,  and  80  m,  for 
Ravenswood. 

For  Humboldt  Bay,  Port  Orford  and  Neeah  Bay,  find  the  tiine 
for  Astoria,  then  subtract  40  m.  for  Humboldt  Bay,  1  h,  16  m,  fQp 
Port  Orford,  and  9  m,  for  Neeah  Bay. 

For  Steilacoom  and  Semiahmoo  Bay,  find  the  time  for  Port 
Townsend,  and  add  to  it  5*7  m.  for  Steilacoom,  and  1  hour  for 
Semiahmoo.  The  approximation  will  only  be  a  rough  one  for 
Steilacoom.

MKTEOROLOGY   OF   THK    UNITKD    STATES   AND   TKUEITORIES   ON    THE 

PACIFIC. 

The  regions  bordering  on  the  equator  are  the  hottest  on  the 
earth,  owing  to  the  sun  being  nearest  to  their  zenith ;  from  which 
to  the  poles,  the  temperature  diminishes,  other  things  being  equal, 
proportionally  as  these  points  are  approached.  Owing  to  this  cir- 
cumstance, an  upper  current  is  found  constantly  flowing  from  the 
equator  to  the  two  poles,  and  a  lower  one  from  the  poles  to  the 
equator ;  the  latter  becoming  heated,  ascends  and  returns  toward 
the  extremities  of  the  terrestrial  axes. 

As  the  diameters  of  the  parallel  circles  diminish  as  they  recede 
from  the  equator,  and  as  all  parts  situated  in  the  same  meridian 
make  a  complete  revolution  round  the  axis  of  the  earth  in  twenty- 
four  hours,  it  follows  that  they  move  with  a  velocity  much  greater 
as  the  points  are  nearer  to  the  equatorial  line.  In  the  northern 
hemisphere,  as  the  upper  and  heated  atmosphere  proceeds  toward 
the  north,  it  gets  more  and  more  in  advance  of  the  earth's  rotatory 
motion ;  the  combination  of  this  motion  from  the  west  toward 
the  east,  combined  with  the  original  direction  from  south  to  north, 
occasions  a  southwest  wind. 

Within  the  torrid  zone,  a  considerable  portion  of  the  heat  trans- 
mitted by  the  rays  of  the  sun  is  absorbed  by  the  waters  of  the 
ocean,  occasioning  an  immense  evaporation,  and  consequently  low- 
ering the  temperature  of  that  portion  of  the  earth.  The  rarefied 
air  of  the  torrid  zone,  charged  with  moisture,  becomes  gradually 
cooled  on  passing  into  a  higher  latitude,  and  consequently  con- 
densed, thus  giving  rise  to  clouds  and  eventually  to  rain ;  contem-

poraneously  with  this  condensation,  whether  exhibited  in  the  form 
of  cloud,  mist,  or  rain,  heat  is  evolved ;  a  more  eciuable  temperature 
is  thus  given  to  the  various  parts  of  the  earth.  Such  are  the  chief 
laws  which  regulate  climate ;  but  they  more  correctly  apply  to 
what  may  be  termed  oceanic  climate.  Considerable  variations  occur 
when  high  mountain  ranges  or  extended  plains,  singly  or  conjointly, 
contribute  to  change  the  normal  conditions.  In  California  both 
these  circumstances  are  found,  as  well  as  others,  which  have  an 
important  bearing  on  its  climate ;  one  of  the  principal  of  which  is, 
the  immense  current  of  moisture  and  saturated  air  which  flows  from 
the  trc  ics  over  the  Gulf  of  California  and  the  low-lying  coast  of 
Sonora,  &c.,  into  the  great  plain  between  the  Sierra  Nevada  and 
the  Rocky  Mountains.  In  this  way  the  greater  part  of  the  mois- 
ture-laden winds  from  the  equator  is  deflected  from  California,  as 
our  valleys  becoming  heated  usually  give  rise  to  a  direct  west 
wind,  which,  although  charged  with  moisture,  as  evidenced  by  the 
great  fog  banks  daily  seen  on  the  coast  range,  is  speedily  dissipated 
on  entering  into  the  warmer  atmosphere  found  within  the  valleys 
which  lie  between  the  coast  range  and  the  Sierra  Nevada.  The 
reverse  of  this  takes  place  when  a  southerly  wind  blows,  especially 
those  ranging  from  southeast  to  southwest ;  in  such  cases  a  warm, 
saturated  atmosphere  invades  a  comparatively  cold  one,  then  rain 
is  precipitated  ;  and  this  is  particularly  seen  in  the  torrent-like  char- 
acter of  the  rain  storms  which  are  witnessed  on  the  Sierra  Nevada, 
from  Mariposa  to  the  Tejon  Pass.  Unfortunately,  no  record  has 
ever  bem  kept  of  the  rain-fall  in  this  region ;  in  some  parts  it  must 
have  been  enormous,  probably  more  than  200  inches  perpendicular 
for  the  entire  wet  season  of  six  months.  A  correspondent  of  one 
of  the  San  Francisco  papers,  writing  from  Visalia,  and  alluding  to 
lumber,  states  as  follows : 

"  The  latter  article  is  rather  scarce  here  just  now,  owing  to  the 
destruction  of  all  the  saw  mills  by  the  floods,  Avhich  seem  to  have 
been  of  a  terrific  nature  on  the  foot-hills  composing  the  lumber 
region.  From  Mr.  Thomas,  who  with  his  brother  lost  two  mills,  I 
learn  that  the  water  in  many  of  the  ravines  rose  to  a  perpendicular 


NOTABILIA   OF   THE   FLOODS   OF    1861-'C2.

height  of  seventy  feet,  and  that  hundreds  of  immense  phies,  being 
uprooted,  were  so  ground  up  that  they  reached  the  plains  as  fine 
as  saw-dust.  A  huge  boiler  from  one  of  their  mills  was  carried 
many  miles,  and  most  of  the  massive  iron  works  have  never  since 
been  seen." 

Whilst  it  seldom  rains  in  Lower  California,  in  Oregon  and  Wash- 
ington Territory  tremendous  rains  occur,  and  the  ordinary  rainy 
season  commences  sooner  and  terminates  later,  both  in  the  sister 
State  and  the  northern  Territory ;  in  fact,  the  northern  portion  of 
California,  so  far  as  rain  is  concerned,  possesses  a  not  dissimilar 
climate  to  that  of  Oregon.  When  the  northeast  winds  bring  rain,  it 
is  probable  that  the  northeast  parts  of  California  are  deluged  with 
heavier  rains  than  the  sister  State  or  Washington  Territory.  No 
return  nor  any  o'stimate  has  been  made  of  the  rain-fall  last  year  in 
Washington  Territory,  but  general  rumor  has  described  the  fall  as 
having  been  very  heavy.  Perhaps,  on  the  average,  a  greater  fall 
took  place  there,  than  in  either  Oregon  or  California  ;  though  prob- 
ably in  no  place  so  low  or  high  as  that  of  some  localities  in  the 
latter  State,  where,  doubtless,  the  extremes  have  occurred,  the 
lowest  probably  being  on  the  plains  of  the  Sacramento  and  San 
Joaquin,  and  the  highest  at  about  5,000  feet  elevation  above  the 
level  of  the  sea,  on  the  Sierra  Nevada,  lying  westwardly  from  the 
line  of  Mariposa  to  the  Tejon  Pass. 

The  great  plain  and  morass  watered  by  the  Sacramento  and  San 
Joaquin,  is  the  recipient  of  all  the  waters  which  fall  upon  an  area 
whose  extent  is  equal  very  nearly  to  that  of  England  proper,  and 
in  geographical  position  appears  to  be  placed,  when  taken  in  con- 
nection with  the  southern  counties,  as  intermediate  between  an 
extremely  dry  (Lower  California)  and  an  extremely  wet  country, 
the  latter  being  composed  of  the  northern  counties  of  California 
and  the  United  States  Territories  to  the  north.  It  may  easily  be 
conceived  that,  from  this  peculiar  position,  the  amount  of  aridity 
or  humidity  between  any  given  years  may  be  exceedingly  discrep- 
ant. Thus  a  tradition  exists  among  the  Indians,  that  during  one 
year  not  a  drop  of  rain  fell  in  central  California,  whilst  the  con-

verse  of  this  is  also  reported,  namely,  that  heavier  rains  and  floods 
than  have  been  witnessed  during  18(j1-'()2,  have  been  known.  The 
truth  of  the  latter  is  greatly  corroborated  by  the  fact,  that  marks 
exist  on  trees,  growing  in  the  San  Joaquin  valley,  showing  that  a 
former  flood  had  been  fully  six  feet  higher.  Mr.  Robert  B.  Randal, 
of  Crescent  ('ity,  has  kindly  informed  me  "that  the  first  flood 
(18»U-'62)  was  some  forty  feet  higher  than  the  usual  stages  of 
water  at  Bradford's  Ford  on  Smith  River.  From  the  bank  at  that 
place,  the  ground  has  a  gradual  rise  in  a  northerly  direction,  and 
was  overflowed  a  mile  or  more ;  from  this  high-water  mark,  and  a 
quarter  of  a  mile  in  the  same  direction,  are  several  drift  logs, 
evidently  deposited  by  a  former  and  still  higher  flood.  *  *  * 
The  Indians  have  it  that  this  former  flood  occurred  about  forty 
years  since ;" — possibly  contemporaneous  with  that,  tlie  evidences 
of  which  are  still  to  be  witnessed  in  the  San  Joaquin  valley.  The 
latter  fact  has  been  attempted  to  be  explained  away  as  imperfect 
evidence,  and  attributable  to  the  growth  of  the  trees ;  this,  how- 
ever, is  a  fallacy,  because  trees  grow  by  cellular  elongation,  and 
the  addition  of  new  cells. 

According  to  the  rain-gauge  kept  by  Dr.  Ayres,  near  Stockton 
and  Clay  Streets,  San  Francisco,  for  the  season  1861-62,  the  fall 
amounted  to  40.6*74  inches ;  the  one  kept  by  Mr.  Tennent  indicated 
49.2Y  inches,  and  the  one  observed  by  Dr.  Logan,  at  Sacramento, 
showed  35.549  inches  for  the  same  period ;  while  at  Fort  Gaston, 
Hoopa  Valley,  Klamath  County,  according  to  the  published  state- 
ment of  Dr.  C.  A.  Kirkpatrick,  the  fall  from  Sept.,  1861,  to  June 
18th,  1862,  amounted  to  129.16  inches.  Dr.  Logan  has  further 
advised  me,  that  according  to  the  observations  of  W.  A.  Bigoli,  of 
Red  Dog,  Nevada,  there  fell  for  twenty-four  hours  ending  9  a.  m., 
Jan.  10th,  5.82  inches ;  for  twenty-four  hours  ending  at  the  same 
period  of  the  day  on  Jan.  11th,  5.50  inches  were  collected  in  the 
rain-gauge ;  from  which,  and  the  amount  of  snow  which  was  ob- 
served on  the  Big  Tree  Road,  it  is  a  fair  inference  that  at  least  an 
average  of  four  inches  of  rain  fell  within  the  great  central  water- 
shed of  California.     For,  according  to  the  published  statement  of

The  total  fall  of  snow  from  Nov.  11,  1861,  to  March  23,  1862, 
being  50  feet  2  inches. 

Dr,  Logan  remarks  that,  on  the  occasion  of  the  first  inundation 
at  Sacramento,  on  Dec.  Yth,  1861,  "  It  commenced  raining  at  12  m., 
and  ended  at  9  a.  m.  on  tlie  9th ;  amount  in  inches,  2.570 ;  the 
flood  commenced  at  10  a.  m.  of  the  9th  Dec,  and  at  10  p.  M.  had 
reached  2  feet  6  inches  in  my  office ;  by  daylight  it  had  all  sub- 
sided.    At  the  second  inundation,  on  Jan.  5th,  1862,  rain  com- 
menced at  10  A.  M.  and  ended  at  1^  a.  m.  on  the  6th ;   during 
that  interval  there  fell  2,690  inches.     On  Jan.  8th,  rain  commenced 
at  11  A,  M.  and  ended  at  7  a.  m.  on  the  10th;  between  which  pe- 
riods there  fell  2.840  inches.     On  January  10th  the  flood  reached 
my  floor  at  2  p.  m.,  and  at  8  p.  m.  came  to  a  stand,  at  3  feet  11 
inches  above  my  floor.     The  Sacramento  River  rose  during  this 
night  to  24  feet  above  low-water  mark.     On  the  14th,  the  water 
had  receded  from  my  floor." 

There  are  two  circumstances  which  will  almost  invariably  be 
found  the  accompaniments  of  extremely  heavy  floods,  namely,  that 
of  occu''ring  early  in  the  season,  previous  to  the  early  fallen  snow 
on  the  mountains  having  become  hardened  and  compact — in  the 
former  state  being  more  easily  percolated,  and  consequently  dis- 
solved by  warm  rains ;  and  secondly,  the  direction  of  the  winds 
being  continuous  for  some  time  from  the  southeast  to  southwest, 
by  which  means  the  tidal  waters  of  the  Bay  of  San  Francisco  be- 
come elevated  beyond  their  normal  condition,  and  to  that  'extent 
impede  the  outflow.     At  tlie  first  flood,  the  former  cause  was  the 


mrfj-t 


wBsm

chief  one ;  at  the  second  one,  each  cause  had  its  influence.  A  slight 
reflection,  however,  will  convince  any  one  acquainted  with  these 
subjects,  that  all  these  phenomena  will  in  future,  as  we  have  wit- 
nessed in  the  past,  l)e  likely  to  be  coincident  with  great  floods  that 
may  occur  hereafter ;  in  fact,  may  rather  be  viewed  as  their  cause, 
instead  of  an  accidental  accompaniment,  and  should,  consequently, 
in  any  suggested  palliations  or  remedies,  be  taken  into  calculation 
as  a  constant  element.  From  tradition,  it  would  appear  that  we 
may  anticipate  a  flood  once  in  about  eight  years,  or  twelve  in  a 
centuiy ;  including  in  the  latter  number,  about  three  more  than 
usual  heavy  ones,  an  estimate  which  is  in  a  great  measure  jus- 
tified by  the  geographical  position  of  California. 

Assuming  the  entire  water-shed  drained  through  the  Straits  of 
Carquinez  as  occupying  an  area  equal  to  50,000,000  square  miles, 
and  that  the  rain-fall  averaged  over  the  entire  area  a  depth  equal 
to  four  inches  in  twenty-four  hours — and  for  some  days  in  January 
last  it  certainly  must  have  exceeded  that  amount — it  would  be  equal 
to  5, 377, 785  cubic  feet  per  second,  or  four  times  the  highest  gauge 
ever  made  of  the  Mississippi  at  its  highest  floods.  The  whole  of 
this  immense  volume  has  no  outlet,  excepting  a  passage  not  greater 
than  300,000  feet  sectional  area,  with  the  further  disadvantage 
that  this  outlet  is  subjected  to  tidal  influence.  Under  such  circimi- 
stances,  that  the  low-lying  country  to  the  east  of  Carquinez  should 
become  inundated,  and  that  for  a  Ico.g  period,  is  not  surprising. 

The  inundation  thus  caused,  extended  over  probably  more  than 
6,000,000  acres ;  the  remedy  for  which  evil  can  only  be  sought  in 
nisjuntain  impoundage,  for  which  purpose  the  physical  character 
of  the  district  surrounding  the  great  central  valley  affords  singu- 
larly great  facilities,  and  in  positions  remarkably  favorable  for  the 
utilization  of  the  proposed  imprisoned  waters  for  mining,  manufac- 
turing, and  irrigating  purposes,  which,  if  placed  under  proper  regu- 
lations, and  combined  with  a  judicious  improvement  of  the  lower 
Sacramento  and  San  Joaquin,  these  rivers  could,  at  no  great 
expense,  be  made  susceptible  of  floating  an  ocean  going  steamer  to 
Sacramento  and  Stockton.     The  arrangements  made  for  leveeing

the  swiimp  lands  under  the  existing  hiw,  may  be  sufficiently  effec- 
tive during  small  floods ;  but  should  the  same  policy  be  pursued 
over  any  considerable  area,  it  will  be  found  to  aggravate  the  evil, 
and  the  first  large  rain-fall  will  demonstrate  its  insufficiency.  It 
will  be  for  the  Legislature  to  determine,  whether  the  balance  of  the 
swamp  land  fund  should  be  frittered  away  in  fruitless  and  petty 
expedients,  or  form  the  nucleus  of  a  fund,  to  be  expended  in  per- 
manently shielding  the  low  lands  from  the  disastrous  consequences 
of  future  floods,  and  at  the  same  time  greatly  enlarging  the  general 
productive  powers  of  the  State. 

Among  other  curious  phenomena  connected  with  the  late 
floods,  was  the  fact  of  considerable  breadths  of  tule  floating  in 
the  bay,  on  the  surface  of  which  there  was  generally  found  a  num- 
ber of  land  snakes,  some  of  which  floated  into  the  Pacific,  others 
got  landed  under  th"  wharves,  and  for  a  long  time  after  the  floods 
had  in  a  great  measure  subsided,  numerous  snakes  were  to  be 
found  about  the  wharves  of  San  Francisco.  Most  singular  of  all, 
however,  was  the  fact  that  the  Lay  fishermen  frequently  caught 
fresh-water  fish  in  the  bay ;  for  from  two  to  three  months,  the 
surface  portion  of  the  entire  waters  of  the  Bay  of  San  Francisco 
consisted  of  fresh  water,  to  the  depth  of  from  eighteen  to  twenty- 
four  inches.  Dr.  W.  0.  Ayres  gave  to  the  California  Academy  of 
Science  the  following  list  of  fish  so  found  : — Archoplitis  interruptus, 
Catostonius  occidentalism  Catontomns  labiatvs,  Orthodon  rrdcrolepidotus, 
Algausea  formosa,  Laomia  comprcssa,  Fti/chochdlus  (/randis,  My- 
lopharodon  robnstm.

The  oysters  placed  on  oyster-beds  fattened  and  died ;  mussels 
became  fresh  and  flavorless,  but,  as  far  as  my  observation  went, 
did  not  perish.  At  the  Golden  Gate,  for  nearly  a  fortnight,  the 
stream  on  the  surface  was  continuously  flowing  toward  the  Pacific, 
composed  entirely  of  fresh  water,  the  tide  not  affecting  the  surface 
flow,  and  the  water  was  brackish  at  the  Farallone  Islands.

TJlSriTED    STATES. 

The  United  Statks  of  America  contains  an  estimated  area  of 
3,250,000  square  miles.  Its  surftu'c  embraces  about  one-third  of 
North  America,  and  about  one-twentieth  of  the  land  of  the  whole 
earth.  Its  greatest  length  from  east  to  west  is  about  8,000  miles, 
and  its  greatest  breadth  from  north  to  south,  1,700  miles.  It  has 
a  frontier  line  of  about  10,000  miles,  of  which  3,500  miles  is  along 
the  Atlantic  coast  and  Gulf  of  Mexico,  and  1,620  miles  on  the 
Pacific  Ocean  and  Straits  of  Juan  de  Fuca.

Pacific  Railroad. — An  Act  cf  Congress,  approved  July  1, 1802, 
provided  tor  the  construction  of  a  railroad  from  the  Missouri  River 
to  the  Sacramento  Valley.  The  name  of  the  body  corporate  is  the 
Pacific  Union  Railroad  Company .^  and  consists  of  more  than  150 
commissioners.  The  amount  of  capital  stock  is  fixed  at  $100,000,000, 
in  100,000  shares  of  $1,000  each.  At  the  convention  held  at 
Chicago,  Sept.  2,  1862,  the  Board  of  Commissioners  elected  the 
Hon.  William  B.  Ogden,  of  Illinois,  President  of  the  Company ; 
Henry  V.  Poor,  of  the  Bailroad  Journal^  Secretary,  and  Thomas 
W.  Olcott,  of  Albany,  Treasurer.  It  was  ordered  that  books  of 
subscription  to  the  stock  should  be  opened  on  the  first  Wednesday 
in  November,  in  the  principal  Eastein  cities,  and  in  San  Francisco, 
Portland,  Carson  City,  and  Great  Salt  Lake  City. 

Mining  Excitements. — The  year  1862  was  prolific  in  gold-min- 
ing excitements.  In  British  Columbia,  a  small  extent  of  country 
at  the  head  waters  of  the  Eraser  had  been  prospected  during  the 
season  of  1861,  with  successful  results  in  individual  instances. 
The  same  was  true  in  regard  to  a  limited  section  of  country  drained 
by  the  eastern  branches  of  Snake  River,  in  AVashington  Territory, 
some  5U0  miles  from  the  ocean.  The  local  newspaper  press,  the 
steamship  companies,  and  the  excitable  tendencies  of  our  people, 
combined  to  create  a  great  "rush"  to  both  localities  in  1862. 
Large  numbers  of  Canadians,  direct  from  the  east,  joined  our  own

emigration  to  the  Cariboo  mines  of  British  Columbia ;  and  it  is 
estimated  that  not  less  than  30,000  adventurers  visited  the  Nez 
Perces  and  Salmon  River  mines  in  Washington.  In  another  direc- 
tion the  Colorado  gold  mines,  near  the  Colorado  River,  in  the 
western  part  of  Arizona,  have  attracted  considerable  attention,  and 
are  believed  to  be  both  rich  and  extensive.  While  the  northern 
mines  can  be  worked  but  half  the  year  on  account  of  deep  snows 
and  low  temperature,  the  Colorado  mines  are  subject  to  the  oppo- 
site extremes  of  excessive  heat  and  prolonged  drought. 

That  these  three  gold  fields,  particularly  that  of  the  Columbia 
Basin,  will  prove  an  important  contribution  to  the  wealth  and  re- 
sources of  the  Pacific  States,  cannot  be  doubted.  During  the 
nine  months  preceding  Oct.  15,  1862,  there  had  been  shipped  from 
British  Columbia  about  $1,200,000,  and  from  the  Washington  and 
Oregon  mines  $1,800,000;  all  exclusive  of  what  was  shipped 
through  private  channels.  The  yield  of  the  Washoe  Silver  Region 
during  the  same  period  was  about  $4,000,000. 

The  P.  M.  S.  S.  Co.'s  steamer  Golden  Gate,  plying  between  San 
Francisco  and  Panama,  left  the  former  port  on  the  21st  of  July, 
1862,  with  388  passengers  and  crew,  and  was  burned  to  the  water's 
edge  on  Sunday,  July  27th,  fifteen  miles  northwest  of  Manzanillo, 
and  one  hundred  and  seventj'-six  lives  were  lost.  Cause :  criminal 
negligence  of  the  company  to  furnish  adequate  protection  against 
accidents  at  sea. 

In  October,  186?  an  opposition  line  to  the  Atlantic  via  the  Nic- 
aragua Isthmus  Transit  was  established.  The  Moses  Taylor,  which 
made  the  first  trip,  sailed  from  San  Francisco  on  the  21st. 


CALIFORNIA. 

The  Great  Floods  of  1861-62  were  the  most  overwhelming 
and  disactrous  that  have  visited  this  state  since  its  occupation 
by  Americans.  The  first  flood  submerged  the  Sacramento  Valley 
about  the  10th  of  December,  the  water  rising  higher  than  in  either 


86 


HAND-BOOK   ALMAMAO. 


of  the  memorable  floods  of  1849  and  1852.  For  six  weeks  there- 
after an  unusual  amount  of  rain  descended ;  and  during  that  time 
the  deluge  but  partially  subsided,  the  streams  still  carried  tor- 
rents, and  the  low  lands  were  overflow  id.  On  the  24th  of  January 
the  second  flood  attained  its  greatest  height,  and  the  Sacramento 
and  San  Joaquin  Valleys  were  transformed  into  a  broad  inland 
sea,  stretclung  from  the  foot-hills  of  the  Sierras  to  the  Coast  Range, 
and  somewhat  similar  in  extent  and  shape  to  Lake  Michigan. 

The  raging  mountain  torrents  swept  away  bridges,  fences,  houses, 
mills,  and  the  most  durable  improvements  in  their  reach ;  not  un- 
frequently  ploughing  new  channels  through  the  country,  and  de- 
positing the  debris  of  sand  and  rock  upon  large  sections  of  culti- 
vated land. 

But  the  flood  was  not  attended  with  unmixed  evil.  The  streams 
that  had  been  choked  by  tailings  for  yr'ars,  were  suddenly  cleared 
of  their  obstructions,  and  extensive  river-beds  were  again  opened 
to  the  enterprise  of  the  miner.  The  work  of  rebuilding  bridges 
and  mills,  and  of  repairing  other  damages,  called  into  profitable 
employment  a  large  number  of  persons ;  and  trade  and  commerce 
and  actual  improvement  suffered  less  interruption  than  might  nat- 
urally have  been  expected,  after  so  great  a  blow  to  our  prosperity : 
and  such  are  the  wonderful  energies  and  resources  of  our  pei  le, 
that  in  a  few  months  the  ravages  of  the  flood  had  disappeared,  and 
losses  estimated  at  millions  had  been  retrieved. 

Constitutional  Amendments, — The  amendments  to  the  Consti- 
tution proposed  by  the  members  of  the  twelfth  session  of  the 
Legislature,  and  adopted  by  the  thirteenth  session,  were  ratified  by 
the  people  at  the  last  general  election.  The  effects  of  the  amend- 
ments upon  the  three  branches  of  the  State  Government  are  noted 
in  the  executive,  legislative,  and  judicial  departments.

1.  ALAMEDA  COUNTY. 

Edward  W.  Bonney  v-us  executed  at  San  Leandro,  May  9th,  1862, 
for  the  murder  of  Augu^te  Hirsch  on  the  13th  of  January,  1861. 
It  was  the  first  legal  execution  in  Alameda  County.

county,  states  that  Alameda  creek  rose  eight  feet  higher  than  he 
had  ever  before  seen  it. 

The  Bay  District  Agricultural  Fair  was  held  at  Oakland,  on  the 
2d,  3d,  4th,  and  5th  of  October,  1862.

Eight  of  the  ten  quartz  mills  in  the  Kern  River  region  were 
wholly  or  partially  swept  away  by  the  flood  of  1861-'62.  These 
constituted  the  chief  mining  and  industrial  interest  of  the  county ; 
but  the  losses  have  to  a  considerable  extent  been  repaired,  and 
new  and  important  developments  made.

4.  BUTTE  COUNTY. 


An  unsuccessful  effort  was  made  to  divide  the  county  during  the 
Legislative  session  of  1862.  The  object  of  the  division  was  to 
detach  the  agricultural  from  the  mineral  portion  of  the  county,  by 
organizing  the  former  into  a  new  county,  to  be  called  Chico. 

Six  men  engaged  in  lumbering,  were  drowned  in  the  Feather 
River,  June  Ist,  1862,  about  twenty  miles  north  of  Oroville. 

The  Indians  in  the  northern  part  of  the  county  were  very 
troublesome  during  the  summer.  In  the  latter  part  of  June,  their 
depredations  culminated  in  the  capture  of  three  members  of  a 
family  by  the  name  of  Hickok,  residing  near  the  Forks  of  Butte. 
A  party  of  residents  went  in  pursuit,  and  found  the  bodies  of  the 
two  girls,  aged  respectively  sixteen  and  thirteen,  pierced  with 
many  arrows.  The  boy,  who  was  younger,  was  never  recovered. 
It  was  several  months  before  the  Indian  disturbances  were  effec- 
tually quelled.

8.  DEL  NORTE  COUNTY. 

An  Indian  Reservation  was  established  in  Smith  River  Valley  by 
Superintendent  Hanson,  in  February,  1862.  The  improvements 
of  the  Klamath  Reservation  having  been  destroyed  by  the  flood, 
the  Indians  were  removed  to  this  valley  because  more  eligibly  lo- 
cated than  the  Klamath  River  for  the  reception  of  supplies  and  for 
military  protection. 

The  storm  of  December  washed  immense  quantities  of  timber 
upon  the  beach,  so  that  for  miles  it  lay  in  a  belt  averaging  200 
yards  in  width,  and  in  places  several  layers  thick.  By  the  same 
storm,  400  feet  of  the  valuable  wharf  (1,300  feet  long)  at  Crescent 
City  was  swept  away.

11.  HUMBOLDT  COUNTY. 

The  northeastern  portion  of  this  county  has  been  the  theatre  of 
very  serious  Indian  depredations  during  the  past  year.  So  early 
as  the  2d  of  April,  the  citizens  of  Areata  held  a  meeting  "  to  con- 
sider the  existing  relations  with  the  Indians,"  at  which  a  series  of 
resolutions  were  adopted,  among  which  was  the  following : 

Besolved,  That  our  community  has  been  laid  waste  entirely ;  all  of  the 
dwellings  have  been  burnt  to  the  east  of  the  Hoopa  trail,  "except  one  now 
occupied  by  the  troops,"  for  a  distance  of  near  50  miles  east  and  south;  the 
cattle  and  other  property  destroyed  to  a  great  extent;  our  citizens  have  been 
murdered  by  the  score ;  the  women  and  little  children  have  been  driven  to 
our  village  and  are  nearly  destitute.  For  more  than  one  year  have  citizens 
been  prevented  from  going  to  the  country  except  at  great  risk  of  their  lives. 
Improvement  of  any  Hnd  is  now  out  of  the  question,  and  we  have  been  mor- 
tified by  seeing  our  population  steadily  take  their  departure  for  other  parts 
of  the  country  affording  more  security. 

-  Although  more  efficient  measures  were  soon  after  adopted,  the 
Indians  continued  to  be  the  terror  of  the  community  for  several 
months.     Colonel  Lippitt,  the  commander  of  the  Humboldt  military

district,  established  new  posts,  and  arranged  his  meagre  forces  to 
the  best  advantage ;  but  the  wily  foe,  well  armed,  and  in  bands  of 
from  40  to  200,  lurked  in  inaccessible  or  unknown  retreats,  or  if 
surprised  by  the  vigilance  of  the  soldiers,  retired  to  others  equally 
secret  and  difficult  of  access,  and  thus  from  their  intimate  knowl- 
edge of  the  topography  of  this  wild  region,  they  existed  almost 
with  impunity  in  the  vicinity  of  United  States  troops.  It  would 
require  more  space  than  we  desire  to  give,  to  mention  even  the 
notable  instances  of  their  daring  and  depredations.

12.  KLAMATH  COUNTY. 

The  floods  of  1861-62  did  great  damage  in  this  county.  The 
rivers,  flowing  through  channels  at  the  bottom  of  narrow,  deep 
canons,  had  no  chance  to  spread,  and  rose  proportionately  high ; 
in  one  place  (at  the  mouth  of  the  Salmon  River)  the  Klamath  rose 
over  100  feet  above  its  ordinary  level,  sweeping  away  a  wire  sus- 
pension bridge,  90  feet  high.  Immense  land  slides  took  place, 
making  precipices  of  the  steep  mountain  slopes,  and  temporarily 
damming  the  rivers,  when  the  accumulated  waters  suddenly  broke 
forth,  carrying  every  thing  before  them.  Some  of  the  gulches 
were  cleared  of  mills,  flumes,  dams,  houses,  and  improvements  of

every  character,  even  to  the  Uttle  patches  of  soil  that  were  culti- 
vated. New  developments  were  made,  however,  through  the 
agency  of  the  flood ;  the  land  slides  disclosed  hitherto  hidden 
treasures,  and  the  torrents  sluiced  out  the  yielding  mountain  sides 
depositing  new  beds  of  auriferous  sand  on  the  bars  below, 

Clinton  Woodford,  Esq.,  Inspector  of  the  port  of  Trinidad,  and 
formerly  an  attorney  at  Orleans  Bar,  was  shot  by  some  hand  un- 
known on  the  2d  of  July.  The  homicide  was  supposed  to  have 
resulted  from  a  previous  controversy  with  Mr.  Marx,  of  Nordheimer 
and  Marx.

LOS  ANGELES  COUNTY.

14.  LOS  ANGELES  COUNTY. 

A  water-spout  occurred  on  the  16th  of  August,  in  San  Francis- 
quito  Canon,  about  00  miles  north  of  Los  Angeles,  which  is  thus 
described : 

"  About  1  p.  M,  of  that  day,  a  heavy  rain  cloud  which  had  been 
hovering  over  the  canon,  burst  with  a  noise  like  thunder,  discharg- 
ing a  huge  volume  of  water,  instantly  filling  up  the  canon  with  a 
roaring  stream,  carrying  every  thing  along  in  its  resistless  course. 
A  party  from  Kern  River,  on  their  way  to  Los  Angeles,  were  in  the 
canon,  of  which  party  one,  Mrs.  C.  J.  Chevalier,  was  drowned. 
The  water  in  the  canon  when  the  party  entered  it,  was  less  than 
three  inches,  and  when  the  torrent  came,  it  was  over  fifteen  feet 
deep.  It  was  past  daylight  the  next  morning  ere  the  torrent  sub- 
sided." 

Several  causes  have  quickened  Los  Angeles  into  new  life.  It  is 
the  supply  depot  for  the  military  forces  that  have  been  accumu- 
lating in  the  southern  part  of  the  state.  The  goods  destined  for 
the  rapidly  developing  silver  region  of  Coro,  and  for  the  new  gold 
mines  of  Colorado  River,  find  their  most  convenient  route  through 
Los  Angeles. 

Colonel  E.  J.  C.  Kewen,  member  of  Assembly  from  this  county, 
was  arrested  on  a  charge  of  treason,  October  Yth,  1862,  and  con- 
veyed, under  military  escort,  to  Fort  Alcatraz.

An  unparalleled  outbreak  of  state  prisoners  occurred  at  San  Quen- 
tin,  on  the  22d  of  July,  whereby  one  hundred  and  fifty  convicts 
escaped.  They  captured  Lieutenant  Governor  Chellis  in  their 
stampede,  and  bore  him  along  for  a  considerable  distance,  to  pro- 
tect themselves  from  being  fired  upon  by  the  guard,  but  he  was 
finally  set  down  unharmed.  The  major  portion  of  the  prisoners 
were  recovered  next  day,  and,  after  pursuit,  roll-call  showed  that 
thirty-three  were  missing,  twenty-two  wounded,  and  three  killed. 
Many  of  the  missing  were  afterward  captured.

The  floods  Avere  very  disastrous  on  the  Merced  River  and  its 
tributaries.  In  the  neighborhood  of  Fremont's  mills  it  rose  ten 
feet  higher  than  was  ever  before  known.  About  tlie  heads  of  the 
Chowchilla  tremendous  land-slides  occurred.  One  is  said  to  ha\e 
been  of  the  area  of  forty  acres,  to  the  depth,  in  places,  of  one  hun- 
dred feet,  bearing  with  it  masses  of  trees  six  and  eight  feet  in 
diameter. 

A  fire  at  Hornitos,  on  the  20th  of  August,  destroyed  about 
$30,000  worth  of  property. 

Veins  of  silver.  Relieved  to  be  both  rich  and  extensive,  were 
discovered  six  miles  south  of  Mariposa,  in  September,  and  created 
a  local  excitement. 

L.  A.  Holmes,  the  witty  and  humorous  editor  of  the  Mariposa 
Gazette  and  Visalia  Delta,  died  in  September,  18G2.  His  decease 
was  a  loss  to  the  county  and  the  state.

19.  MONO  COUNTY. 

An  extraordinary  flood  occurred  in  Mono  County,  on  the  11th  of 
January,  occasioned  by  a  rain  of  three  days  duration  falling  on  a 
heavy  body  of  snow.  Great  damage  was  sustained  at  Aurora, 
which  lies  at  the  convergence  of  several  gulches.  The  streets  were 
converted  into  rivers,  whose  frenzied  currents  left  destruction  in 
their  wake.  The  stone  buildings  were  undermined  and  fell  with 
crash  after  crash,  and  the  adobe  buildings  were  dissolved  into 
heaps  of  mud.  The  disaster  was  attended  with  loss  of  life  on  Boda 
Creek. 

The  Esmeralda  Star  newspaper  was  established  May  10,  1802. 

The  mineral  wealth  of  Esmeralda  has  been  rapidly  developed 
during  the  year.  Several  ledges,  which  had  held  but  a  nominal 
price  in  market,  rose  to  a  high  figure  after  quartz  mills  were  fairly 
in  operation.  In  the  month  of  August,  the  Wide  West  ledge  ap- 
preciated from  $200  to  §;  1,000.

22.  NEVADA  COUNTY. 

A  gale  visited  this  county  on  the  15th  and  16th  of  November, 

1861.  During  its  prevalence  trees  were  uprooted,  houses  blown 
down,  and  valuable  flumes  destroyed. 

The  great  flood  of  1861-2  wrought  considerable  damage  to  the 
quartz  mining  interests  of  Grass  Valley.  The  mines  were  filled 
with  water,  and  the  mills  ceased  to  run,  throwing  out  of  employ- 
ment 1,500  miners.  It  was  estimated  that,  while  the  storm  con- 
tinued, the  daily  loss  accruing  to  Grass  Valley  amounted  to  $10,000. 
Notwithstanding  the  great  losses  occasioned  by  the  storm,  the 
property  valuation  of  the  county,  for  the  year  ending  June  30th, 

1862,  was  half  a  million  more  than  for  the  previous  year — an  evi- 
dence of  the  solid  prosperity  of  the  county. 

A  new  wire  suspension  bridge  has  been  constructed  across  Deer 
Creek,  at  Nevada  City,  at  a  cost  of  $12,000.  It  is  said  to  be  the 
largest  one  in  the  state.  The  cables  are  503  feet  long,  and  the 
surface  of  the  suspended  roadway  is  4,700  square  feet.

The  construction  of  the  Red  Bluff  wagon  road  has  developed  a 
new  and  practical  route  through  this  county,  via  Noble's  Pass  and 
Honey  Lake  to  the  Humboldt  River  mining  region.  By  this  route 
the  mines  are  brought  within  175  miles  of  navigation,  making  the 
cost  of  transportation  materially  less  than  by  the  rival  routes  of 
Henness  Pass  or  Placerville.  ..^ 

Important  discoveries  in  gold,  silver,  and  copper  have  been  made 
in  this  county  during  the  past  year.        „      .        _,  •     ,>j

25.  SACRAMENTO  COUNTY. 

The  great  floods  of  1861-62  were  peculiarly  disastrous  to  the 
capital  of  the  State.  The  swollen  current  of  the  American  River 
burst  through  the  levees  of  Sacramento  City,  and  submerged  the 
whole  town  to  a  depth  of  from  two  to  eighteen  feet.  The  water 
not  only  entered  the  lower  stories  of  all  the  dwellings,  but  in  many 
cases  invaded  the  second,  and  in  the  southern  part  of  the  city  small 
houses  were  lifted  from  their  foundations,  and  overturned  or  floated 
off  by  the  tide.  The  business  streets  were  transformed  into  Vene- 
tian canals,  and  row-beat?  and  sailing  craft  were  substituted  for 
land  vehicles.  At  one  time  the  steamer  Gem,  attempting  to  as- 
cend the  American  River,  was  drawn  through  the  crevasse,  and 
lodged  in  an  orchard  one  hundred  rods  from  the  river.  It  is  im- 
possible to  estimate  with  precision  the  damage  which  the  city 
sustained  through  the  flood.  It  probably  did  not  fall  short  of 
$2,000,000.  But  the  city  has  the  recuperative  power  to  recover 
from  the  blow.  She  has  already  built  a  substantial  bulkhead, 
impervious  to  future  floods,  and  she  will  continue  to  be  the  leading 
commercial  city  of  the  interior.  ' 

Two  educational  conventions,  three  political  conventions,  and 
the  State  Agricultural  Fair  were  held  at  Sacramento  in  the  year 
1862.  ,     ,    .

29.  SAN  JOAQUIN  COUNTY. 

The  Waterloo  House,  ten  miles  north  of  Stockton,  has  been 
made  doubly  famous  in  connection  with  warlike  exploits.  In  No- 
vember, 1861,  John  Balkwill  resisted  an  attempt  to  eject  him  from 
the  premises.  He  barricaded  his  house,  and  threw  up  earthworks 
around  it,  and  bade  defiance  to  an  enemy  armed  with  a  nine-

pounder  and  small  arms.  After  several  rounds  of  shot  on  both 
sides,  the  officers  of  the  law  interposed  in  behalf  of  the  besieged, 
and  hostilities  were  suspended. 

In  May,  1862,  an  attempt  was  made  by  the  s(iuattera  and  settlers 
on  Comstock's  Ranch,  near  the  Waterloo  House,  to  resist  a  writ  of 
ejectment,  served  by  the  sheriff.  From  fifty  to  eighty  armed  men 
intrenched  themselves,  and  prepared  to  resist  any  force,  civil  or 
military,  tluit  might  be  brought  against  them.  For  a  time  blood- 
shed was  imminent,  as  the  people  were  in  favor  of  executing  the  law 
at  all  hazards ;  but  better  counsels  prevailed  on  tlio  part  of  the 
settlers,  and  the  claims  were  legally  adjusted. 

Miss  Abigail  B.  Monroe  was  accidentally  drowned  in  the  San 
Joaquin  River,  on  the  25th  of  June.  She  formed  one  of  a  party 
on  a  pleasure  excursion  in  a  sail-boat. 

The  third  annual  fair  of  the  San  Joaquin  Valley  Agricultural 
Society  was  held  at  Stockton,  commencing  Sept.  0,  1862.

36.  SIERRA  COUNTY. 

An  iwalanche  occurred  at  Orum  Hill,  near  Pine  Grove,  February 
13,  1862,  occasioning  the  loss  of  two  lives:  over  three  acres  of 
enow  slid  down  the  mountain  side,  burying  a  miner's  cabin,  and 
smashing  in  the  timbers  at  the  entrance  to  a  t  nnel.  Land  slides 
were  frequent  in  the  deep  and  narrow  canonn  of  the  Sierras  during 
the  extraordinary  storms  of  1861-2. 

The  mines  of  Alturas  or  Northern  Sierra  have  been  worked  with 
great  success.  Large  chispas  have  been  taken,  and  new  mining 
localities  have  been  established,  and  general  prosperity  character- 
izes the  mining  season  of  1862.

A  tragic  affair  occurred  on  the  24th  of  January,  1862,  resulting 
in  the  death  of  Deputy  Sheriff  David  Campbell  and  one  Isaac

Bakor,  whom  he  was  attempting;  to  arrest.  Campbell  shot  Baker 
and  mortally  wounded  him.  At  the  same  moment  a  son  of  Baker 
shot  Campbell,  killinf^  him  Instantly. 

The  unsettled  condition  of  land  titles  in  Sonoma  County  contin- 
ues to  cause  trouble,  litigation,  and  resistance  to  law.  The  settlers 
on  the  Kaneho  Sotoyome,  in  the  Russian  River  Valley,  made  au 
armed  resistance  to  the  execution  of  wi-its  of  restitution,  in 
Juno.  On  the  17th  of  July,  Sheriff  Bowles  w(!nt  to  the  Ranch  with 
a  posse  of  225  men  to  serve  a  writ  against  Cornelius  Bice,  one  of 
the  occupant;-,  and  was  met  by  a  body  of  sixty  armed  men.  Ilia 
own  men  being  unarmed,  he  was  unal)le  to  execute  his  con)mission. 
In  September,  the  (tovernor  having  ordered  out  the  militia,  two 
companies  proceeded  froui  Petuluma  to  the  Ranch,  and  on  the  25th 
ejected  the  occupants ;  but  no  sooner  had  the  militia  left  than  the 
settlers  returned  to  the  Ranch.  At  the  following  session  of  the 
District  (\)urt,  proceedings  were  instituted  against  the  settlers, 
effectually  dispossessing  them  of  the  land. 

The  Sonoma  County  Agricultural  and  Mechanical  Fair  was  held 
in  conjunction  with  Napa  County,  at  Sonoma,  commencing  October 
lih,  1862.

40.  STANISLAUS  COUNTY. 

The  flood  in  this  county  was  attended  with  loss  of  life  and  great 
destruction  of  property  along  the  course  of  the  Stanislaus  River. 
About  one-half  of  the  town  of  Knight's  Ferry,  an  enterprising  place 
in  the  foot-hills,  was  literally  swept  away  by  the  impetuous  current 
of  the  swollen  stream.  The  river  rose  twelve  feet  higher  at  this 
place  than  the  highest  previous  water-mark,  and  the  current  was 
sufficiently  strong  to  propel  mill-stones,  iron  safes,  and  huge  boul- 
ders. The  bridge,  flour  mills,  and  business  houses,  with  their  con- 
tents, on  the  lower  side  of  Main  street,  were  carried  away.  But 
with  the  characteristic  spirit  of  California  towns,  the  energetic  in- 
habitants unmediately  began  to  repair  their  losses,  scarcely  wait- 
ing for  the  floods  to  abate,  and  now  the  place  presents  a  better 
appearance  than  before.

42.  TEHAMA  COUNTY. 

The  last  Legislature  granted  a  franchise  for  an  important  wagon 
road  connecting  Red  Bluff,  via  Noble's  Pass  and  Honey  Lake,  with 
the  Humboldt  mines  of  Nevada  Territory.  The  road  has  been 
improved  and  much  travelled  during  the  past  season. 

L.  H.  Sanborn,  Esq.,  a  prominent  member  of  the  county  bar  at 
Red  Bluflf;  died  June  23,  1862. 

There  are  two  Indian  reservations  in  this  county — the  Home 
Cult,  well  conducted  and  successful,  and  the  Nome  Lackee,  averred 
to  be  in  a  "  miserable  condition."  From  the  latter,  bands  of  In- 
dians have  several  times  escaped  and  made  incursions  upon  the 
neighboring  ranches.  The  first  important  raid  of  this  character 
was  made  by  thirty  partially-armed  Indians  on  the  30th  of  April. 
The  whites  organized  at  once,  pursued,  and  surprised  them  May 
4th,  when  a  fight  occurred  in  which  seventeen  Indians  and  two 
whites  were  killed.

43.  TRINITY  COUNTY. 

The  Weaverville  Journal  of  December  14,  1861,  referring  to  the 
flood  in  Trinity  River,  which  was  then  at  its  height,  says  it  was 
"  the  greatest  ever  known,  even  by  the  Indians,  for  half  a  century. 
The  river,  in  places  where  it  Avas  confined,  rose  seventy  feet 
above  water  mark  ;  in  other  places  where  it  was  wide,  the  banks 
caved,  and  cultivated  ranches  were  carried  away.  Every  mining 
improvement  on  the  river  for  one  hundred  miles  has  been  destroyed, 
and  more  than  one-half  the  bar  aud  river  miners  are  ruined." 
The  loss  was  estimated  at  $150,000. 

But,  as  has  been  shown  in  Klamath  County,  the  flood  compen- 
sated for  private  losses  by  benefiting  the  public  at  large.  The 
Jotimal^  above  quoted,  says,  at  a  later  date :  "  The  immense  body 
of  water  rushing  down  the  stream  has  washed  heavy  deposits  of 
earth  off  many  flats  and  bars,  leaving  nothing  for  the  miner  to  do 
but  to  wash  the  pay  dirt.  In  some  instances,  the  entire  bed  of  the 
stream  has  been  changed  and  the  old  channel  is  nearly  dry,  saving 
to  the  miner  much  expense  in  damming  and  fluming." 

A  heavy  rain  storm  occurred  on  the  12th  of  June  at  Weaverville.

47.  YUBA  COUNTY. 

The  flood  of  1861-2  left  traces  in  this  county.  A  small  portion 
of  the  city  of  Marysville  was  inundated  by  the  first  rise  of  Decem- 
ber, ^861,  and  several  buildings  undermined.  Portions  of  culti- 
vated land  along  the  courses  of  the  streams  were  washed  away. 
Hundreds  of  acres  of  the  flats  of  Bear  River  were  covered  with 
sand  and  tailings  brought  down  by  the  mountain  torrents,  and 
rendered  unfit  for  agricultural  purposes.  The  wool-growers  of  the 
county  were  said  to  be  heavy  losers. 

Upon  the  accession  of  Horace  Beach  to  the  office  of  County  Col- 
lector, it  was  discovered  that  his  predecessor,  John  S.  Love,  was  a 
defaulter  to  the  extent  of  from  $20,000  to  $30,000.

OREGOK 


A  great  flood  deluged  the  Willamette  Valley  in  December,  1861. 
A  heavy  fall  of  rain,  combined  with  the  melting  snows  of  the  cas- 
cades, swelled  the  mountain  brooks  to  destructive  torrents,  and 
raised  the  Willamette  River  above  its  banks,  inundating  extensive 
tracts  of  cultivated  land  in  the  valley,  and  undermining  the  towns 
and  villages  along  its  course.  The  flood  attained  its  greatest 
height  on  the  5th  of  December,  at  which  time  it  is  said  to  have 
been  much  greater  in  extent  than  any  that  has  preceded  it  since

the  State  was  occupied  by  white  men.  At  Oregon  City,  w^.ich  suffered 
more  than  any  other  point,  the  loss  was  estimated  at  UYO,()00. 

The  Umpciua  River  also  overflowed  its  banks,  aini  flooded  the 
adjacent  country ;  but  the  valley  being  less  thickly  settled,  the 
destruction  of  property  was  limited. 

The  unusual  fall  of  snow  east  of  the  Cascades,  during  the  winter 
of  1861-'62,  gave  rise  to  a  June  flood  in  the  lower  Columbia,  of 
unprecedented  height.  The  Dalles  was  inundated,  and  the  Willa- 
mette was  backed  up  so  that  the  river  stood  at  Portland,  on  the 
14th  of  June,  twenty-eight  feet  above  low-water  mark,  completely 
deluging  the  lower  part  of  the  city. 

Important  discoveries  of  gold,  in  placers  and  quartz,  have  been 
-made  In  eastern  Oregon  and  Washington.  The  "  rush"  of  30,000 
adventurers  to  the  new  mining  field  has  created  a  home  market  for 
the  productions  of  this  State.  Much  of  the  overland  emigration 
was  diverted  to  Oregon,  and  will  permanantly  occupy  the  rich 
farming  land  of  Willamette  Valley.  Thus  a  great  impetus  haa 
been  g,  en  to  the  development  of  the  mineral  and  agricultural 
wealth  of  the  State ;  and  notwithstanding  the  overwhelming  losses 
by  flood,  it  has,  during  the  past  year,  been  blessed  with  unwonted 
prosperity. 

The  increase  of  populat=  i  in  the  northeastern  part  has  made 
new  municipal  organizatiout  necessary,  and  two  new  counties, 
Baker  and  Umatilla,  have  been  erected — the  former  em]> 'acing  the 
valleys  of  Grande  Rondc,  Powder  and  Burnt  rivers,  western  afflu- 
ents of  Snake  river;  and  the  latter  including  the  mining  region  of 
John  Day  and  Umatilla  rivt-rs,  tributaries  of  the  Col'  aibia.

The  Nez  Perce  and  Salmon  River  mines  may  he  said  to  have  ac- 
complished the  important  results  expected  t)f  them.  They  have 
drawn  from  all  parts  of  the  coast  and  from  the  east  a  large  emi- 
gration, nearly  trebling  the  population  of  the  territory.  They 
have  yielded  large  and  satisfactory  returns  in  gold ;  over  $3,000,000 
(it  is  estimated)  having  been  shipped  from  the  mines  of  Washing- 
ton and  Oregon,  through  public  and  private  channels.  Enter- 
prising adventurers  have  been  stimulated  to  prospect  more  thor- 
oughly portions  of  the  great  l)asin  of  the  Upper  Columbia,  and  new 
Melds  of  mineral  wealth  have  rewarded  their  eftbrts,  and  the  gold 
producing  area  of  the  Pacific  States  has  been  enlarged. 

Two  new  counties,  Idaho  and  Xez  Perce,  were  created  from 
Shoshone  County  by  the  Legislative  Assembly,  Dec.  20,  1861. 

The  coldest  weather  ever  experienced  on  Puget  Sound  of  which 
there  is  any  record,  occurred  in  January,  18B2.  During  that  and 
the  preceding  month  a  large  amount  of  rain  and  snow  fell,  corre- 
sponding to  the  (ixtraordinar}-  rain  fall  of  Oregon  and  California. 
At  Vancouver,  on  the  IVth  of  Janunry  iit  sunrise,  the  mercury 
stood  lO*-""  below  zero.

For  several  years  past,  Tiioutenant  John  Miillan,  U.  S.  A.,  has  been 
engaged  in  constructing  a  wagon  road  from  Fort  Benton,  at  the 
head  of  present  navigation  on  the  Missouri  River,  to  Walla  Walla, 
near  the  bend  of  the  Columbia.  He  completed  this  important 
work  in  August,  1862,  and  the  navigable  waters  of  those  two 
streams  flowing  to  opposite  oceans,  were  luiited  l)y  a  good  moun- 
tain road,  624  miles  in  length.

r>.  IDAHO  COUNTY. 

Idaho  County,  organized  December  20,  1861,  comprises  all  that 
portion  of  what  was  Shoshone  County  lying  south  of  the  dividing 
ridge  between  the  (Clearwater  and  Salmon  Rivers.  The  name,  ac- 
cording to  one  authority,  is  the  Indian  word  for  "star,"  but  tlio 
signification  popularly  attributed  to  it  is,  "  Gem  of  the  Moimtains." 
Within  its  limits  lie  the  rich  gold  fields  of  Salmon  River,  already 
possessing  a  world-w'de  fame.  Xew  and  important  discoveries 
have  recently  been  made  on  Boise  River.  It  is  probable  that  the 
greater  portion  of  che  county  abounds  in  auriferous  wealth. 

The  scenery  in  .he  neighborhood  of  Salmon  River  is  remarkable 
and  impi-essive.  The  stream  flows  between  perpendicular  walls  of 
rock,  from  five  hundred  to  two  thousand  feet  high. 


ISLAND   COUNTY. 


Florence  City  is  situated  on  an  elevated  plateau  in  the  heart  of 
a  wild  mountainous  region,  its  altitude  being  so  great  that  snow 
exists  in  the  vicinity  the  major  portion-of  the  year.  It  is  a  striking 
example  of  the  rapid  growth  of  our  mining  towns.  In  the  height 
of  the  mining  season,  and  before  the  first  year  of  its  settlement 
was  complete,  its  population  exceeded  5,000.

12.  MISSOULA  COUNTY. 

A  considerable  emigration  entered  Washington  Territory  via 
Lieut.  Mullan's  wagon  road,  having  ascended  the  Missouri  River  as 
far  as  Fort  Benton  on  boats.  The  fine  agricultural  lands  along  the 
course  of  Mullan's  road,  and  in  the  valleys  of  Bitter  Root,  Black- 
foot,  and  Hell  Gate  rivers,  are  being  occupied  for  farming  and 
grazing  purposes.  Gold  has  been  found  in  the  neit;hborhood  of 
each  of  the  above  named  streams.  The  newly  developed  mineral 
wealth  of  this  extensive  district,  together  with  its  agricultural  ad- 
vantages and  improved  means  of  communication,  are  likely  to  work 
important  results  in  its  immediate  future.

Member  of  Council. — Hon.  J.  M.  Moore,  Pierce  City,  1864.

Nez  Perce  County,  ovganized  December  20,  1861,  comprises  a 
belt  of  land  lying  south  of  the  Clearwater  River,  and  extending 
from  Snake  River  eastvard  to  the  Bitter  Root  Mountains.  Elk 
City,  the  centre  of  a  gold  mining  district ;  Lewiston,  the  head  of 
navigation  on  the  Snake  River,  and  Kamas  Prairie,  a  fertile  agri- 
cultural expanse,  lie  T/ithin  its  limits.  The  name  of  the  county  is 
derived  from  a  large,  powerful,  and  friendly  Indian  tribe,  within 
whose  reservation  nearly  the  whole  county  lies.  Nearly  all  the 
travel  to  the  Salmon  River  mines  passes  through  Nez  Perce

NEVADA    TERlirTOKY.

NEVADA  TERRITORY. 


Congress  at  its  last  session  transferred  the  eastern  boundary  of 
Nevada  from  the  thirty-ninth  to  the  thirty-eighth  degree  of  longi- 
tude, thereby  adding  nearly  one-fourth  to  the  extent  of  the  ter- 
ritory. 

The  past  year  has  been  fruitful  in  rfisults.  It  opened  with  a 
flood,  which  destroyed  property  estimated  at  from  $200,000  to 
$1,000,000.  This  was  followed  by  a  stampede  to  the  Salmon  River 
mines  which  still  further  drained  the  territory  of  the  means  of  de- 
veloping its  resources.  But  these  resources  were  too  well  known, 
iro  vast  and  too  multiform  to  remain  undeveloped.  The  damaged 
mills  were  repaired  and  put  into  operation,  and  new  ones  were 
erected  to  meet  the  increased  demand  ;  the  busy  hum  of  industry 
sounded  on  every  hand,  and  unexampled  prosperity  followed. 
Ophir  stock  rose  from  $1,800  to  $3,600  per  foot.  Other  mines 
appreciated  in  a  corresponding  degree.  Capitalists,  and  profes- 
sional and  business  men  who  came  over  from  California  to  specu- 
late, remained  to  engage  in  business,  build  houses  and  homes,  and 
permanently  invest  their  capital.  Virginia,  Gold  Hill,  Silver,  and 
Carson  Cities  have  grown  with  magical  rapidity,  and  the  first 
named,  numbering  several  thousand  inhabitants,  already  wears  a 
metropolitan  aspect. 

It  is  computed  that  1,000  wagon  teams  are  engaged  in  carrying 
freight  from  Sacramento  Valley  to  Washoe.  The  teams  make 
about  four  trips  during  the  season,  hauling  on  an  average  two  and 
a  half  tons  at  a  load,  at  six  to  seven  cents  per  pound.  Thus  we 
have  an  aggregate  of  10,000  tons  of  freight  transported  over  the 
mountains  in  one  season,  at  a  probable  cost  of  $1,300,000.  These 
figures  hint  strongly  at  the  need  of  a  railroad.  .,„

8.  ESMERALDA  COUNTY. 

Esmeralda  is  a  larpje  county,  occupyinp^  the  southern  part  of  the 
Territory,  and  inehidea  witliin  its  limits  Walker's  Lake — a  large 
body  of  water  without  an  outlet,  and  the  unexplored  region  east 
of  it.  The  Esmeralda  District,  from  which  the  county  takes  its 
name,  is  in  the  western  part — the  richest  ledges  and  the  town  of 
Aurora  lying  beyond  the  border,  in  California.  The  Van  Horn 
and  several  other  silver  districts  of  less  impoi-tance  than  the  Es- 
meralda, lie  wholly  or  partly  in  this  county.  The  gold  placer 
diggings  on  Walker  River,  have  been  worked  with  success.  A 
coal  mining  district  has  been  laid  out  on  the  East  Walker.

4.  HUMBOLDT  COUNTY. 

Humboldt  County  occupies  the  northeastern  portion  of  Nevada 
Territoi'v,  embracing  nearly  one-third  of  its  extent.  Humboldt 
River,  which  traverses  the  county  from  east  to  west,  after  forming 
a  lake,  finally  sinks.  Li  the  bend  of  the  river,  and  near  the  centre 
of  the  Territory,  exists  the  rich  Humboldt  silver  raining  district, 
the  ledges  cropping  out  of  a  range  of  mountains  which,  with  its 
spars,  does  not  exceed  thirty  miles  in  length,  from  north  to  south, 
by  twelve  or  fifteen  miles  in  breadth.  Gold,  quicksilver,  lead,  and 
antimony,  are  also  found  in  the  Humboldt  mining  region. 

The  disparaging  accounts  of  Humboldt  River — its  impure 
waters,  alkaline  flats,  and  the  parched  and  barren  deserts  along  its 
course,  seem  to  be  inapplicable  to  this  and  the  other  mountainous 
masses  adjacent  to  the  stream,  foy  these  are  favored  with  abun- 
dance of  pure  water,  vegetation  of  thrifty  growth,  and  a  compara- 
tively genial  climate.

Ornisby  County  extends  from  Lake  Bigler  over  the  east  summit 
of  the  Sierras,  across  Carson  River  to  the  western  boundary  of 
Lyon  County.  The  fine  agricultural  district  of  Eagle  Valley  lies 
in  this  County.  The  Sierras  abound  in  valuable  timber,  with  elig- 
ible mill  sites.  Carson  River  furnishes  unlimited  water  power,  and 
numerous  quartz  mills  are  in  operation  on  its  banks.  The  mineral 
resources  are  various,  and  believed  to  be  extensive — silver  and 
gold  quartz  lodes  having  been  discovered  in  various  parts  of  the 
county.  The  ledges  on  Clear  Creek,  a  short  distance  below  Car- 
son City,  are  being  developed  with  great  vigor.  Tunnels  driven 
bet^reen  two  and  three  thousand  feet,  into  the  hills,  at  this  point, 
are  among  the  gigantic  enterprises  of  the  Territory.

8.  STOREY  COUNTY. 

The  Virginia  district,  containing  the  Comstock  Lode — the  rich- 
est silver  mine  known  to  exist,  and  the  Gold  Hill  district,  second 
only  to  the  Virginia  district  in  importance,  lie  mainly  within  the 
limits  of  Storey  County,  rendering  it  the  first  county  in  the  terri- 
tory in  mineral  wealth  and  productiveness.  Immense  capital  and 
energy  have  been  expended  in  the  erection  of  reduction  works 
and  quartz  mills,  and  tunnels  several  thousand  feet  in  length  have 
been  driven  into  the  mountains,  for  the  purpose  of  tapping  the 
mines  hundreds  of  feet  below  ths  surface. 

The  October  contribution  to  the  Sanitary  Fund  by  Storey  County 
was  made  in  the  shape  of  eight  massive  silver  bars,  worth  $20,226.22. 
Five  of  the  bars  weighed  111  pounds  each. 

Virginia  City  appears  to  be  the  supply  depot  for  the  territory. 
The  principal  wholesale  houses  are  located  here,  and  it  is  growing 
and  spreading  rapidly  on  every  side.  Public  buildings,  of  a  sub- 
stantial character,  are  going  up  which  will  compare  favorably  with 
those  of  older  and  larger  cities.

9.  WASHOE  COUNTY. 

Washoe  Lake,  a  small  sheet  of  water  in  the  southeastern  part  of 
Washoe  ('ounty,  not  only  contributed  its  name  to  the  county  in 
which  it  lies,  but  to  the  whole  silver  region  bordering  on  Carson 
River.  The  county  of  Washoe  lies  between  Storey  County  on  the 
east  and  the  boundary  of  California,  and  extends  from  Pyramid 
Lake  on  the  north  to  Lake  Bigler  on  the  south.  Washoe  Valley 
and  the  chain  of  valleys  extending  northward  along  the  course  of 
Steamboat  Creek  and  Truckee  River,  contain  more  or  less  agricul- 
tural and  grazing  land.  An  abundance  of  timber  exists  in  the 
mountains,  and  saw-mills  are  in  active  operation  along  their  base. 
Gold,  silver,  lead,  and  other  minerals  are  profitably  mined  in  this 
county.  Tii»>  Ophir  Works,  the  most  extensive  reduction  works  in 
the  territor ,  are  locat.  I  on  the  western  side  of  Washoe  Valley, 
and  are  to  be  >  mnected  with  the  Ophir  iidne  at  Virginia  City,  by  a 
railroad.

UTAH  TERRITOEY. 


With  the  exception  of  Colorado,  no  State  or  Tertitory  in  the 
Union  is  so  regular  in  its  outlines  as  Utah,  Its  boundaries  are 
entirely  political  or  artificial,  aud  were  it  not  for  the  notch  in  the 
northeastern  part,  caused  by  the  corner  of  Nebraska,  its  form 
would  be  almost  a  square.  The  109th  degree  of  longitude  divides 
it  from  Colorado  on  the  east,  and  the  115th  from  Nevada  on  the 
west.  The  37th  parallel  of  latitude  separates  it  from  New  Mexico 
on  the  south,  and  the  42d  from  Washington  on  the  north. 

A  high  and  rugged  spur  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  generally  des- 
ignated the  Wasatch  Range,  though  in  places  known  as  the 
Bear  and  Uinta  Mountains,  traverses  the  territory  from  north  to 
south.  At  the  base  of  these  mountains,  on  the  west,  lies  Great 
Salt  Lake  and  the  chain  of  valleys  stretching  southward  for  200 
miles.  In  these  valleys,  and  on  the  eastern  border  of  Great  Salt 
Lake,  peaches,  apples,  pears,  plums,  apricots,  grapes,  currants, 
and  other  fruits  are  siiccessfully  cultivated,  and  also  the  various 
grains  and  vegetables  grown  in  the  temperate  zone.  The  largest 
streams  are  Green  and  Grand  Rivers,  which  unite  and  form  the 
Colorado.  The  general  character  of  the  territory  is  that  of  moun- 
tain and  desert.  The  streams  sink  as  they  emerge  from  the  moun- 
tains, and  many  of  them  are  entirely  absorbed  by  the  thirsty  soil,

before  they  have  advanced  six  miles  into  the  valleys.  The  lakes 
are  generally  saline,  Great  Salt  Lake  being  the  largest  of  that 
character  in  America.  Extensive  tracts  of  land,  apparently  of 
excellent  quality,  are  ruined  by  the  abundant  presence  of  alkali, 
which  corrodes  vegetation. 

The  population,  about  80,000,  is  composed  almost  exclusively  of 
a  religious  sect  who  style  themselves  Latter  Day  Saints,  and  are 
popularly  known  as  Mormons.  An  imposing  temple  is  in  process 
of  erection  at  Great  ?:^.lt  Lake  City,  where  the  wealth,  power,  and 
influence'  of  the  church  are  centralized,  and  where  its  head,  Presi- 
dent Biigham  Young,  ri  sides.  -  .        .,

The  Seventies  and  High  Priests  in  the  various  settlements  in  this 
Territory  have  meetings,  and  are  regulated  by  a  local  presidency, 
separate  from,  but  subordinate  to,  the  standing  presidencies  of 
their  quorums. 

John  Smith  (son  of  Hyram  Smith)  is  presiding  patriarch.  There 
are  several  other  patriarchs  in  the  church. 

High  Council. — There  is  a  High  Council,  composed  of  twelve 
members,  organized  at  Great  Salt  Lake  City,  and  in  all  the  princi- 
pal settlements  of  the  Territory.

HAND-BOOK   ALMANAC. 


Bishops. — The  Territory  is  divided  into  wards,  over  each  ward 
is  a  Bishop,  with  two  counsellors.  Great  Salt  Lake  City  is  divided 
into  twenty  wards.     Edward  Hunter  is  the  presiding  Bishop. 

Membership. — In  the  Territory,  the  numerical  membership  of  the 
church  will  nearly  correspond  with  the  population.  Throughout 
the  United  States  there  are  branches  and  membf  rs  of  the  church, 
but  at  present  so  disorganized  that  the  number  is  not  known. 

There  are  organized  branches  and  conferences  of  the  church 
throughout  England,  Scotland,  Ireland,  Wales,  Denmark,  Norway, 
Italy,  Switzerland,  the  Germanic  States,  and  in  other  parts  of  the 
world.  ..

Though  large  in  extent,  this  county  contains  but  little  tillable 
land.  Extending  from  the  Wasatch  Mountains  to  Nevada  Terri- 
tory along  the  northern  boundary  of  Utah,  the  only  cultivated  land 
is  on  the  northeastern  border  of  Great  Salt  Lake.  Promontory 
Point,  which  extends  southwardly  into  the  lake,  is  used  as  a  herd 
ground,  being  generally  bare  of  snow.  Bear  River,  the  largest 
stream  emptying  into  Great  Salt  Lake,  intersects  the  eastern  part 
of  the  county.

3.  CACHE  COUNTY. 

A  handsome  valley  in  the  northern  part  of  the  territory,  en- 
closed by  the  Wasatch  Mountains  and  its  spurs,  constitutes  most 
of  Cache  County.  It  is  well  watered  and  well  timbered,  and  pro- 
duces abundantly  the  hardier  grains  and  vegetables.  The  valley 
is  subject  to  long  and  severe  winters,  owing  to  its  elevation,  and 
the  snowy  mountains  surrounding  it.

portion  is  an  unmitigated  desert,  broken  by  a  few  dry  ranges  of 
mountains.  The  eastern  part  is  very  rugged  and  mountainous, 
with  a  few  small  elevated  valleys.  There  is  some  white  pine 
timber,  of  superior  quality,  near  the  summits  of  the  mountains. 
Magnetic  and  other  iron  ores  are  abundant,  and  some  coal  veins 
have  been  opened  and   brought  into  use.     Ancient  hieroglyphics

Mount  Nebo,  an  isolated,  snow-capped  summit,  near  the  centre 
of  the  Territory,  is  on  the  northeastern  boundary  of  Juab  County, 
Which  receives  its  name  from  the  small,  fertile  valley  of  Juab,  in 
its  eastern  part.  Salt  springs  of  excellent  quality,  and  rock  salt, 
are  found  in  the  mountains.  The  region  is  too  elevated  and  the 
climate  too  cold  for  any  but  the  hardier  fruits  and  vegetables.

11.  SAN  PETE  COUNTY. 

The  important  valley  of  San  Pe^e,  forty  miles  long  by  ten  broad, 
gives  its  name  to  this  county,  whiiih  lies  east  of  Juab  and  Millard, 
and  100  miles  south  of  Great  Sak  Lake.  This  valley  lies  at  the 
western  base  of  the  southern  extension  of  the  Wasatch  Mountains, 
and  is  well  watered  by  the  San  Pete  River  and  its  several  affluents, 
which,  uniting,  form  the  Sevier  River.  Saleratus  is  gathered  in 
considerable  quantities  from  natural  beds.  Thin  veins  of  coal 
have  been  traced  in^the  mountains.  Pino  timber,  cedar  for  fuel, 
and  rock  for  building  purposes  exist  in  abundance.  None  but  the 
more  hardy  fruits  and  grains  mature.

The  head  waters  of  Weber  and  Bear  Rivera  are  included  within 
the  limits  of  this  county,  which,  as  its  name  indicates,  is  distin- 
guished for  its  gi'eat  altitude.  The  high  plateau,  called  Kamas 
Prairie,  affords  abundant  summer  grazing.  Coal  veins  have  been 
worked  near  Chalk  Creek.  There  is  excellent  pine  timber  in  the 
mountains,  and  lumbering  and  grazing  are  the  principal  employ- 
ment of  the  inhabitants.

Tooele  Valley,  watered  by  Tooele  River,  which  empties  into  the 
southern  extremity  of  Great  Salt  Lake,  occupies  the  eastern  por- 
tion of  this  county.  Thence  the  county  extends  westward  to  the

desert.  Tooele  Valley  is  noted  for  its  extensive  sheep  grazing, 
the  range  being  excellent,  even  in  winter,  as  the  valley  has  a  com- 
paratively mild  climate.

14.  UTAH  COUNTY. 

Utah  Lake,  a  fine  body  of  fresh  water,  whose  extreme  length 
and  breadth  are  35  miles  by  15,  is  situated  near  the  centre  of  this 
county,  and  separates  its  two  principal  valleys,  Utah  and  Cedar. 
The  lake  is  connected  with  Great  Salt  Lake  by  the  Jordan  River, 
and  is  said  to  correspond  to  the  Sea  of  Galilee,  in  Palestine,  con- 
nected by  the  river  Jordan  with  the  Dead  Sea.  Utah  Valley,  east 
of  the  lake,  is  watered  by  several  streams  rising  in  the  Wasatch 
Mountains,  which  in  this  county  are  remarkable  for  their  rugged 
character.  Cedar  Valley,  in  the  west  part  of  the  county,  is  of 
considerable  altitude,  and  a  good  grazing  district.  Fort  Crittenden 
is  located  in  the  northern  part.

•  .    ,     15.  WASATCH  COUNTY. 

The  scenery  of  Wasatch  County  is  not  surpassed  by  that  of  any 
other  portion  of  Utah  Territory.  It  lies  east  of  Great  Salt  Lake 
and  Utah  Counties,  and  is  reached  by  means  of  a  road  costing 
$80,000,  built  along  the  Provo  River,  which  runs  through  a  mag- 
nificent gorge,  a  distance  of  15  miles.  Cascade  Creek,  coming  from 
the  south,  falls  over  a  precipice,  into  the  canon,  from  a  height  of 
1,000  feet.  At  its  upper  end  the  canon  widens  into  a  fine  moun- 
tain-locked valley,  30  rniles  long  by  10  miles  wide,  watered  with 
several  beautiful  creeks  and  many  springs.  At  Hot  Spring  Town, 
several  thermal  springs  have  formed  immense  caldrons  of  limo- 
stone,  some  of  them  40  or  50  feet  deep,  with  hot  water  in  the  bot- 
tom, of  various  colors  and  temperatures.

through  an  impassable  mountain  gorge.  Several  fine  valleys,  on 
the  head  waters  of  the  Rio  Virgin,  at  the  southern  base  of  the 
mountains,  enjoy  a  semi-torrid  temperature,  in  which  the  attempt 
to  grow  cotton  has  been  made,  with  uncertain  results.

this  county  from  the  Wasatch  Mountains  to  Great  Salt  Lake. 
Considerable  tracts  of  valuable  farming  land,  easily  irrigated, 
render  this  an  important  agricultural  county.  Ogden  Valley,  high 
in  the  mountains,  is  about  20  by  10  miles,  and  affords  an  excellent

British  Columbia  lies  north  of  the  49th  parallel  and  west  of  the 
Rocky  Mountains.  It  is  about  300  miles  wide,  from  east  to  west, 
and  is  traversed  from  north  to  south  by  broken  chains  of  high  and 
rugged  mountains.  Between  the  ranges  lie  broad  expanses  of 
table  lands,  diversified  with  lakes,  prairies,  and  timber  belts.     The

Streams  are  rapid  and  generally  gold-bearing.  The  principal  ones 
are  the  Frazer,  flowing  southward  into  the  Gulf  of  Georgia,  the 
Stikeen,  flowing  westward  into  the  Pacific,  and  Peace  River,  flow- 
ing northeastward  into  Great  Slave  Lake. 

Cariboo,  the  famous  mining  district,  is  about  50  miles  long, 
from  east  to  Avest,  by  20  broad,  and  includes  the  placers  on  many 
of  the  streams  which  flow  into  Frazer  River,  between  its  source 
in  the  Rocky  Mountains  and  the  point  where  it  bends  southward. 
The  district  is  about  500  miles  from  the  mouth  of  the  Frazer,  by 
the  travelled  route.  Valuable  auriferous  deposits  are  also  found 
in  the  head  waters  and  principal  affluents  of  each  of  the  other 
streams  above  mentioned.

2.  VANCOUVER  ISLAND. 

Vancouver  Island  is  divided  from  Washington  Territory  by  the 
Strait  of  San  Juan  de  Fuca,  and  from  British  Columbia  by  the 
Gulf  of  Georgia.  "  Of  an  elongated  form,  it  is  essentially  a  moun- 
tain ridge,  attaining  at  Mount  Avrowsmith,  an  elevation  of  5,900 
feet.  Cut  up  by  numerous  inlets  of  the  sea,  in  no  case  does  the 
water-shed  suffice  to  give  a  navigable  stream,  though  numerous 
fresh  water  lakes  are  found,  imbosomed  amongst  the  spurs  of  the 
mountain  ranges.  In  length  three  hundred  miles,  with  an  average 
breadth  of  thirty  to  fifty,  its  outline  is  boldly  picturesque ;  its 
shores  are  characterized  by  abrupt  cliffs,  rocky  promontories, 
magnificent  harbors,  sheltered  coves,  and  pebbly  beaches.  *  * 
The  climate  approximates  closely  to  that  of  Great  Britain,  modi- 
fied by  special  circumstances  connected  with  its  physical  geogra- 
phy."— Prize  Essay  by  Charles  Forbes^  Esq. 

The  principal  resources  are  coal,  timber,  and  fisheries.  The 
product  of  the  coal  mines  of  Narraimo  in  1861,  was  about  15,000 
tons. 

The  free  port  of  Victoria,  situated  on  a  commodious  harbor,  at 
the  southeastern  extremity  of  the  Island,  is  the  capital  of  the 
colony,  and  the  principal  commercial  town  in  the  British  Posses- 
sions on  the  North  Pacific  coast.  .

Zodiacal  Light. — The  Zodiacal  Light  is  a  faint  light  resembling 
the  tail  of  a  comet,  and  is  seen  at  certain  seasons  of  the  year,  fol- 
lowing the  course  of  the  Sun,  after  evening  twilight,  or  preceding 
his  approach  in  the  morning  sky. 

It  was  formerly  held  to  be  the  atmosphere  of  the  Sun.  It  has 
also  been  supposed  to  be  a  nebulous  body  revolving  around  the 
Sun.  From  recent  observations,  made  with  care  in  various  parts 
of  tropical  America,  there  appears  to  be  strong  evidence  that  the 
Zodiacal  Light  is  a  belt  which  entirely  S!urr(yunds  the  Earth. 

Velocity  of  the  Earth's  Motion. — The  Earth  moves  forward 
rn  its  orbit  1,640,000  miles  per  day,  68,000  miles  per  hour,  1,100 
miles  per  minute,  and  nearly  19  miles  every  second.
